MUNICH (Germany) - While five clubs celebrated a positive start in the first leg games of the EuroLeague Women Qualifiers, there are another five teams now under pressure and needing to now post comeback victories to advance.
We're taking a look at which clubs find themselves in the trickiest situations after their respective first outings and who might be best placed to launch a rescue mission.
DVTK HUNTHERM: The Hungarian clubs is statistically best placed, since they host AZS UMCS Lublin in the next game trailing by only three points in the tie, having lost the first game 70-67.
KKZ Crvena Zvezda: They couldn't make home advantage pay as they went down 79-71 in Belgrade against Umana Reyer Venezia, but fought hard and have a shot at redemption. Especially with an in-form Yvonne Anderson.
Tango Bourges Basket: Last season's Final Six participants must do it the hard way after being defeated 75-64 at Kibirkstis-TOKS, but will feel the tie is still in the balance now they meet again on French soil.
Casademont Zaragoza: The Spanish club endured a nightmare first half at Zabiny Brno and are 21 points behind at 81-60, but it could have been more serious having once been 36 down. The home fans could play a role in fuelling a spectacular fightback.
ACS Sepsi-SIC: The Romanian side have a serious mountain to climb in Istanbul after losing to Galatasaray Cagdas Faktoring 81-48 in the first meeting.
